2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

I hate to do this, but as a skydiver I have to point out that 'chutes made for BASE jumping do not have reserve 'chutes so it would be impossible for this person to have "relied on his reserve." In addition, were he to use a normal 'chute which DOES have a reserve chute, the main would not be able to deploy fast enough for a BASE jump.

If you're considering sawing through the tree branch directly overhead... stringing a "shell" necklace of live ammunition... installing deadly boobytraps in your own home... you jut might be a Darwin winner! Illustrations by Zeebarf and McGookin.

"The Darwin Awards... constitute a delicious
sermon in support of common sense."
-The Baltimore Sun
